The Notre Dame baseball team evened its record at 2-2 by winning a 1-0 thriller against visiting Perryville on Tuesday afternoon.

Lee Essner (2-0) pitched a four-hit shutout with nine strikeouts and three walks. Perryville (1-2) hurler Shaun Roth allowed just three hits in going the distance. He fanned three and walked none.

"It was a good high school baseball game," Notre Dame coach Jeff Graviett said. "Essner was dominating again and their kid really pitched well."

The Bulldogs scored the only run in the sixth inning. With one out, Matt Wulfers and Blake Urhahn singled. Wulfers stole third and scored when Tony Longman hit a ground ball that Perryville just missed turning into a double play.NOTRE DAME 1, PERRYVILLE 0
